If like me, you spend most of your online video streaming time between 2 sites- YouTube and Netflix, then the UP970 is a great choice for you. With a simple to use remote, onscreen control display, easy wifi or wired internet setup, DVD and BluRay upscaling, 4K streaming, UHD 4K Blu Ray disc playback AND dolby vision and HDR this model delivers. If you can find one for under 200$CDN don't hesitate.

UPDATE: 18 Months Later. Certain discs do exhibit rattling, even with the newest firmware. This seems to be with very specific discs, e.g. Dunkirk from the Nolan box set rattles excessively while Interstellar and Inception do not. The firmware to add Dolby Vision is finally here, after a few months of being pulled. I can't comment on the it as by the time it was finally re-implemented, I had already bought the titles I was interested in seeing Dolby Vision in on streaming platforms. There are better players out now with the same features but better build quality and the same price, and if you want rock bottom players, there are cheaper options out there (including some made by LG themselves). This player has zero reason to exist now.

My LG UP970 plays my UHD blu ray movies with amazing picture quality, thanks mostly to it supporting Dolby Vision. And improves the look of regular Blu ray and DVDs. Easy to setup and use with simple interface. Only and biggest downside is cheap housing. The build is mainly plastic and can't handle the high disc speeds needed to read UHDs. This causes horrendous shaking and noise. Forcing me to put the player in a drawer to suppress the sound.

The unite is excellent in terms of Image quality, HDR is beautiful, loved that you can plug USB with movie file and plays them with an excellent Upscale. Unfortunately the unit makes a Buzzing noise when playing 4K discs, only on 4K, does not make any noise for Blu-Ray or DVD discs. The noise can be distracting when you are watching the movie with low volume. Read on the web and apparently the issue is with the unit design.

Matched the LG UP970 with a LG 34UMB61-P with excellent results, outstanding clarity with HD resolution. Scales very well with lower resolution with excellent video image and color depth. Superior in features and stability, streaming video is outstanding with this unit and we have not had any pauses in signal due to latency.
